Man U and Officials vs Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

I think last year summed it up perfectly when the ref was actually from Manchester. Don't even try and hide it now.

What was worse? Fernandes fouling Konsa to get a penalty or Pogba fouling himself to get a penalty?

Pogba standard cheating, the Fanydes one was just outrageous

[Meanwood Villa]

We win here roughly once every 30 years so I don't think our time has rolled around again yet. A draw would be a fantastic result (unless it involves blowing a two goal lead)

[Skerra]

They’ve had a couple of penalty appeals go against them in their last2 games so, expect the ref to make up for that against us.

This has all the hallmarks of another good performance/brave defeat unfortunately even before you factor in any poor officiating.
We need to convert our approach to points and I think we will, given time but maybe Sat is too soon. I'll be optimistic though.

2-2

[Legion]

0-2.

[Drummond]

Mings will be considered shit, Ings and Watkins can't play together, not sure what Buendia adds to the team, Targett hasn't recaptured his form from last season and Smith is shit.

Konsa did well, and if only Bailey had been fit. Archer was unlucky with his chance.

Dean is a cockspanner, Ronaldo a twat, and Pigba a cheat.

There, that's the after match summary done.

[Dr Butler]

a clean sheet please Villa as we have goals in us....

I will not be looking at my phone until 3pm on Sat so hoping for very good news before I go on holiday.

What about, I am really glad that we didnt make any substitutions even though both Mings hamstrings had gone and Konsa had to push him around the penalty area on a skateboard.
Nice touch from  Mike Dean though to celebrate their third goal by running to the Stretford End bear chested and throwing his shirt into the crowd.

It's borderline match fixing our record against them.

Yes, but at least the PL came out two days after the Fernandes one and said they got it wrong.
Which obviously made everyone feel a lot better about being cheated.

A scab 6 team with miserable barstool Fergie still pulling the strings of the officials in the stands ably abeited by var and the obligatory penalty (or two) all to massage the egos of the man Urinals makes this one of the least attractive fixtures of the season for me.
Good luck AVFC we're going to need it!

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

A sense of inevitability has settled round me, and it's only Thursday. 3-1 to them.
